Ingredients :

2 teaspoons olive oil

1 large onion, finely chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 pound ground turkey

2 tablespoons chili powder

1 cup salsa

2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce

2 small carrots, julienned

Methods :

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion and garlic; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
